I mean, the single painting flanked by lamps is traditional, symmetrical and orderly. The collage approach is more eclectic, although I think the dark frames and subject matters are a bit heavy-handed and make the space more somber than moody.<br /><br />Me, I'm a traditional sort of fella - give me classic spiffied up and I'm all smiles. (Saves on the redecorating budget too!).

I like a single big piece of art or a large framed hanging mirror with smaller artwork in front for the mantle. <br /><br />Thanks for all your lovely comments and for the links here. xoxo AmyAmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10039738445868326605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8895104784950964974.post-87992832736497191322010-06-14T11:44:34.366-04:002010-06-14T11:44:34.366-04:00I like one big piece.
